Hello, Sorry for the time i took to answer, but i was building the kernel with different settings to test, and it takes time.. So with CONFIG_SND_HDA_POWER_SAVE=n it's even worse, not even wvdialconf can be run as it gives a null pointer dereference (tried 3 times, rebooted everytime). Tried to recompile then set to y but power_save value to 0 (just like it is in ubuntu), and it runs wvdialconf but fails quickly after a connection is accomplished, like before. I remember i found a message some time ago of someone who had the same problem, but never saw another message of him since that time :( Anyway thanks for the help!
